- More about Fragility of Caring for Others: Adorno and Care
Estelle Ferrarese's book offers a renewal of Theodor W. Adorno's thinking, focusing on the social conditions of caring for others and arguing for a materialist and political understanding of morality. She questions the capitalist form of life, which produces a compartmentalised attention to others, attributed to women.

Estelle Ferrarese is a prominent figure in the contemporary French reception of Critical Theory, and her book presents a significant renewal of Theodor W. Adorno's thought. Ferrarese explores the social conditions of caring for others, challenging the prevailing social philosophy and proposing a materialist and political understanding of morality. Drawing on theories of care, she examines the mechanisms of the social fragility of caring, the moral gesture it demands, and its political implications. Ultimately, Ferrarese demonstrates that the capitalist way of life, characterized by widespread indifference, leads to a fragmented attention to others, primarily assigned to women.
